Technical Abstract

There is disclosed a paste composition comprising a mixture of: an organic binder having an acidic functional group; at least one polyvalent metal or a polyvalent metallic compound; and an anion-adsorptive substance having the property of adsorbing an anion of said organic binder. The paste composition is capable of inhibiting gelation in a mixture of an organic binder having an acidic functional group with a polyvalent metal or a polyvalent metallic compound and is excellent in storage stability.

20 claims

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A paste composition comprising a mixture of: an organic binder having an acidic functional group; at least one polyvalent metal or polyvalent metallic compound; and an anion-adsorptive substance having the property of adsorbing an anion of said organic binder.

2

2. The paste composition according to claims 1 , wherein said anion-adsorptive substance is a powder having a mean particle diameter of about 0.01 to 50 m.

3

3. The paste composition according to claim 2 , wherein the content of said anion-adsorptive substance is about 0.001 to 30% by weight based on the total weight of the paste composition.

4

4. The paste composition according to claim 3 , wherein said anion-adsorptive substance is at least one member selected from the group consisting of hydroxyapatite, hydrotalcite, zirconium phosphate and antimony oxide hydrate.

5

5. The paste composition according to claim 3 , wherein said anion-adsorptive substance is hydroxyapatite.

6

6. The paste composition according to claim 1 , wherein said organic binder is a (meth)acrylic polymer having a carboxyl group in a side chain.

7

7. The paste composition according to claim 1 , wherein the paste composition is a photosensitive paste which further comprises a photosensitive organic component.

8

8. The paste composition according to claim 1 , wherein said polyvalent metal is at least one powdered metal selected from the group consisting of copper, aluminum, palladium, nickel and iron.

9

9. The paste composition according to claim 1 , wherein said polyvalent metallic compound is a powdered glass; a powdered ceramic comprising at least one member selected from the group consisting of boron, barium, magnesium, aluminum, calcium, lead, bismuth, copper, zinc, zirconium, niobium, chromium, strontium and titanium; or a combination thereof.

10

10. A multilayer substrate comprising a fired laminate comprising a plurality of layers of the paste composition according to claim 1 .

11

11. A green sheet comprising a molded slurry, said slurry comprising a mixture of: an organic binder having an acidic functional group; a polyvalent metallic compound; and an anion-adsorptive substance having the property of adsorbing an anion of said organic binder.

12

12. The green sheet according to claim 11 , wherein said anion-adsorptive substance is a fine particle having a mean particle diameter of about 0.01 to 50 m.

13

13. The green sheet according to claim 12 , wherein the content of said anion-adsorptive substance is about 0.001 to 30% by weight based on the total weight of the slurry.

14

14. The green sheet according to claim 12 , wherein said anion-adsorptive substance is at least one member selected from the group consisting of hydroxyapatite, hydrotalcite, zirconium phosphate and antimony oxide hydrate.

15

15. The green sheet according to claim 14 , wherein said organic binder is a (meth)acrylic polymer having a carboxyl group in a side chain.

16

16. The green sheet according to claim 15 , wherein said anion-adsorptive substance is hydroxyapatite.

17

17. The green sheet according to claim 11 , wherein said slurry further comprises a photosensitive organic component.

18

18. The green sheet according to claim 11 , wherein said polyvalent metallic compound is a powdered glass; a powdered ceramic comprising at least one member selected from the group consisting of boron, barium, magnesium, aluminum, calcium, lead, bismuth, copper, zinc, zirconium, niobium, chromium, strontium and titanium; or a mixture thereof.

19

19. A multilayer substrate comprising a fired laminate of a plurality of green sheets according to claim 11 .

20

20. A multilayer substrate according to claim 19 having at least one via hole therein.
